"Couldn't we go and take a walk in them?" he asked Jimmie one day.
"Yes," was the answer. "Only you want to be careful."
"Why?" asked Bunny.
"'Cause the woods are awful thick. You can't see your way very well, and once Rose and I got lost."
"Oh, we wouldn't go in very far," said Bunny. "Some day I'm going into those woods."
Two or three days after that, when he and Sue had played in the sand until they were tired, Bunny said:
"Let's go to the woods!"
"All right!" agreed Sue. "Shall we get Jimmie and Rose?"
"No, let's go by ourselves," said her brother. "I want to see if we can find our way all by ourselves."
And so, not telling their father or mother or Uncle Tad or Bunker Blue anything about it, off the two children started.
